Retrace Agatha’s footsteps across England, visit Beacon Cove, the location where a young Agatha swam with her nephew when he narrowly escaped drowning. The memory would be reprised in her 1939 novel 'And Then There Were None' when a young nanny lets the boy in her charge drown. In Ealing, discover how Agatha witnessed her Great Aunt, affectionately known as Granny, devour local gossip and the news, including the fascination with the day’s murder trials, the fingerprints of which would be all over Agatha’s fictional world of Miss Marple and the village of St Mary’s Mead in 1930’s The Murder At The Vicarage.
